About The Team
Terraform provides complex infrastructure lifecycle management to organizations with a single workflow to provision their cloud, private datacenter, and SaaS infrastructure. The Terraform Enterprise team’s mandate is to deliver the Terraform Cloud SaaS offering to the customer’s on-prem environments, with seamless user experience in installation, administration, operation and maintenance. As a result, this team is responsible for a wide range of responsibilities to service the diverse customer base. These include but are not limited to software development, infrastructure and site reliability engineering, release management, and more. We leverage major cloud providers: AWS, Azure, GCP, and invest heavily in deployment options in Docker and Kubernetes. The current stacks are Go, Terraform, Ruby on Rails, GitHub Actions and more. There is no front end development. The team’s key technical competencies are broad, but can be summarized to the following:
- Software engineering: requirements gathering, prototyping, implementation, validation, build and deployment, production monitoring.
- Infrastructure, system and security engineering: scaling, disaster recovery planning, error handling.
- Solution discovery: ability to identify options to both technical and business challenges, and the willingness to experiment and validate.
Terraform Enterprise occupies a strategic position in HashiCorp and experiences vastly different opportunities at a fast pace. We do not expect everyone to have industry experience in all things we do today. However, we do expect the candidate to have deep understanding in the software development cycle, concise communication, proven record in cross functional collaboration, and willingness to pivot and pick up new skills quickly. This is a unique opportunity for those who excel at both system change and point solution, and enjoy acquiring broad experience. We follow the agile methodologies of two week sprints, refinement, scrum, and retrospectives. Terraform Enterprise team is spread across 9 time zones in 4 countries. We are 100% remote.
